I am interested to know why you have [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Bike_%28magazine%29&diff=1256969146&oldid=1182583694 replaced issue number #1 with December 2024]?
== Better source request for [[:File:Railways Illustrated August 2024 cover.jpg]] ==


Issue number #1 has historic significance, and accords with the adjacent prose.
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
*[[:File:Railways Illustrated August 2024 cover.jpg]]
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the [[copyright]] status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic. Please consider clarifying the ''exact'' source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as the web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the direct/bare URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.


What is special about issue December 2024 that has caused you to source and upload a new version?
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{BASEPAGENAMEE}}}} this link]</span>. If you have any questions please ask them at [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:Bsr-user --> — Ирука<sup>[[user:Iruka13|13]]</sup> 23:45, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi I see you've been replacing the cover images in various articles about magazines with current (November 2024) issues. With these kind of images, one should be wary of a tendency towards [[WP:RECENT|recentism]], and it is worth bearing in mind that non-free images, such as magazine covers, are liable to be deleted if they are no longer used in WP articles. Particularly in articles about long-running publications, it might be worth considering retaining "historic" covers elsewhere in the article?
